Harvest Festival

Overview

The annual Harvest Festival is back in town this Sunday at the City Botanic Gardens. It’s been heralded one of the “best-curated Australian festivals” with its spoilt-rotten line up and arts showcases.

This year you can throw yourself into exhibits, indulge in comedy acts, visual performances and unwind in gardens if the excitement becomes too much, which is a veritable possibility considering the artists who are rolling into town for the occasion.

The main and undeniable treat of Harvest is the music. The line up is varied and all-inclusive, boasting old gems and newer acts who Australia rarely get to see. This year punters can catch The Dandy Warhols, Dexy’s (Midnight Runners), The Silversun Pickups, Sigur Ros, Cake, Ben Folds Five and Santigold, among many others. If that wasn’t choice enough, there are DJ sets throughout the day and other yet-to-be-discovered artists that are sure to leave no discernible taste unaccommodated.

You may be in luck if you are yet to swipe a ticket, be sure to check out the website for all the details.
